> Currently clients of {{ParallelScatterZipCreator}} could provide
> {{ZipArchiveEntry}} and {{InputStreamSupplier}} through
> {{ParallelScatterZipCreator#addArchiveEntry}}. From those two a
> {{ZipArchiveEntryRequest}} is created. Providing {{InputStreamSupplier}}
> solves the problem with opening too many files - streams are opened
> just-in-time - when an entry is compressed, not when it's submitted.
> But there are use cases when the stream may contain information about the
> {{ZipArchiveEntry}}. In those cases creating {{ZipArchiveEntry}} before the
> {{InputStream}} is opened won't work. If there is an option to supply both
> {{ZipArchiveEntry}} and {{InputStreamSupplier}} ({{ZipArchiveEntryRequest}}),
> this will solve the issue.
> There is a bug in Plexus Archiver
> (https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/plexus-archiver/issues/53) that is
> example for such use case. Plexus Archiver have option that allows entries
> that are already zip files to be stored instead of compressed
> ({{AbstractZipArchiver.recompressAddedZips}}). To detect if given entry is
> zip archive, {{AbstractZipArchiver}} should read the first several bytes of
> the stream. So creating {{ZipArchiveEntry}} before the stream is opened is
> not useful - the compress mode is not known. Opening the stream when the
> {{ZipArchiveEntry}} is created won't work either. Because you can add entries
> to {{ParallelScatterZipCreator}} a lot faster than you could compress them
> you could open too many files very fast. And I don't think opening and
> closing the stream is an option as such operations could be relatively
> expensive in the general case. But if it could supply both the
> {{ZipArchiveEntry}} and the {{InputStream}} just-in-time (by passing
> {{ZipArchiveEntryRequestSupplier}} to {{ParallelScatterZipCreator}}) then the
> problem is solved.
> What do you think? Does the addition of
> {{ParallelScatterZipCreator#addArchiveEntry(ZipArchiveEntryRequestSupplier)}}
> makes sense?
